I Knew You All Along [ Sequel ]

Will he say 'I do'?

Thomas's P.o.v.

Today was the day of the wedding and I couldn't be more nervous. I was afraid Jason may tell me that he's changed his mind overnight, especially of my actions from the club last night. Jason reassured me it was alright but there was still that nagging feeling in the pit of my heart.

"I shouldn't have drunk anything." I cried onto my Andrea's shoulder.

"What if he says no now because of my actions?"

Andrea embraced me in a tight hug. "Don't worry he'll say yes, now stop being insecure and go get ready for your big day." She said releasing me and shoving me into the bathroom lightly.

I took an extra-long shower and made sure to scrub every inch of my body. I had turned off the water and wrapped myself in a towel and walked out where a bunch of Aphrodite girls and boys were waiting for me.

The boys were ushered out as the girls did my hair and even my makeup. Finally after hours of sitting in front of a vanity I was styled to perfection and the boys were escorted back in as the girls were kindly shoved out giggling as the boys ordered me to remove my towel which was held securely around my waist.

I blushed as the Aphrodite boys tried to forcibly remove my towel but I made it sure it was securely clutched in between my fingertips. Finally, realizing that they wouldn't win they all turned around as I removed my towel and put on proper undergarments. Now without the protection and comfort of the towel I left myself exposed to them as they dressed me in the tuxedo Jason had helped me pick out only weeks ago. Sighing I stared at myself in the mirror running the fabric in between my fingertips.

Flashback

"What about this one?" I asked Jason who was staring at a black suit in the corner of the shop.

He gave me his full attention as he stared at the tuxedo I was completely mesmerized with.

"Whatever makes you happiest."

I gave him a pout, "I wanted your opinion. That's why I brought you here."

Jason only stared at me and nodded his head.

"Jase." I tugged at his shirt. "Jason."

Jason ignored me and went to go and stare back at the tuxedo in the corner of the store. I crossed my arms as I went and stared back at the suit I was looking at. I kept pretending to look at the suit until I heard the jingle of the door. Curious, I turned around to see who had walked in, but I was astonished to find out that nobody had walked in, but had walked out. Jason had walked out.

End of Flashback

I closed my eyes as I ran my fingertips across the fabric of the tuxedo. The tuxedo Jason was looking at. A silent tear ran down my cheek as I remembered how Jason had walked out on me with no explanation that day. Maybe he'd walk out on me today too.

Jason's P.o.v.

I stood alone in front of the mirror they had provided for me and looked at myself.

"I'm in love with Thomas." I told myself. "I'm in love with Thomas." This time I said it louder than before.

I didn't need to convince myself that I was in love with Thomas but I just didn't know if what I was doing was morally acceptable. I sighed as I looked at myself. I was disgusted. Running my hand through my hair I stared at the suit I was wearing.

Flashback 

"What about this one?" I heard Thomas ask me from my place in the corner of the shop where I was staring at a tuxedo.

Walking towards where Thomas was standing I gave him my full attention as I stared at the suit he was obviously awe-struck with.

"Whatever makes you happiest." I finally answered his question which had brought me here in the first place.

Thomas gave me pout, "I wanted your opinion. That's why I brought you here."

I stared blankly at my fiancé

"Jase." Thomas said tugging at my shirt. "Jason."

Ignoring him I went to go and stare back at the tuxedo in the corner of the store. I stood there and just imagined the reaction that I would get from my dad when I told him I was going to marry a boy. He would be angrier when he finds out It's his brothers son. The smile on my face faded as I imagined my dad getting in between Thomas and me or even worse hurting Thomas to punish me. So, I quickly walked out the store leaving Thomas in there alone.

End of Flashback

"I'm not sure I want to go through with this." I told myself staring at my reflection. I had tears brimming my eyes and slowly I let them fall. "I can't go through with this!" I told myself knocking the mirror down, glass shattering everywhere. "Think of what could happen!"

I felt the anger I had cooped inside me stir as I threw things around. Then a hand was gently placed on my shoulder. It was my sister.

"Jason." She calmed me. "Jason calm down. You can do this."

I stared into her blue eyes, blinking away the tears as she soothingly calmed my nerves down. "I can't go through with this." I whispered to her as I lay my head on her shoulder.

"Why not?" She asked as she led me to the couch patting the space next to her.

"Imagine what dad will do when he finds out! Especially if I'm marrying his brother's son! You know they don't get along well."

Justice stared at me. "Is this what this is all about? You're worried about dad? Forget old Zeus! This isn't dad's choice, he doesn't control your actions. You shouldn't let what you think dad is right or wrong define you."

I stared at her and embraced her. "What about Thomas? What if he goes after Thomas?"

"Thomas has you to look after him. I know for a fact that you won't let anyone go after him."

"What if I can't get there in time to save him?"

"Let's not worry about that. Right now you have someone waiting at the altar for you."
